INGALLS, SPEECH.

The London Chronicle and the Post ant
the Pail Mall Gazette respectively hav
turned themselves loose on Senator ingalls,
The Chronicle, in word, sets his speech
down as clap-trap. The Post says Ingall
does not represent the sentiment of Aneri
ca. The Gazette says that in Kansas, Of
which people ingalls, is representative
they shoot hats off mems heads, and which
ACCOMPLISHMENT is about all the Kansas
people can boast In the meantime the
blue nosed Cannuck splutters and struts
about with the declaration that England is
going to line the fishing coast of North
America with war ships
ingalls, is not clap trap orator, in the
first place, and he knew what he was talk
ing about Kansas is the repres sntative
state of America, from John Brown down,
and Ingalls, is one of the representative
men of Kansas England did play double
with the north and held out false hopes TO
the south during the war. and there is no
love for the Britisher, or admiration for
his bullying style, on this side Of the water
outside of Canada, and if any war ships
are sent over here they may never get
back. The United States government

The talk of English officials that they will
extend Canada to the Gulf Of Mexico is
rot, cheap rot If England gets into a war
with America the British empire will come
out Of the scrapc a third rate power in
Europe, or come out nothing. America and
her statesmen know all about England and
her resources. Upon the other hand, Eng
land knows nothing or little America, her
leading newspapers even asserting that
Kansas, the central state of the union, is
filled with a class Of men, or Savages-in
their eyes no doubt-whese boosted accom-
plishment consists of throwing up their
head gears and shooting holes through
them before they have reached tie ground
ingalls, represented the sentiment Of
America, and England will take back her
words touching this fishery question or
she will be forced to swallow them.
Americans rule America, and, as the Gin
cinnaii inquirer puts it. there never was a
better time than the present in which to
pick Eight with Canada. Both great
parties in England are broken into fac
tions, each knitting the other. Suffering

stirred up the flame of rebellion among
her Indian subjects. Republican France
is moving for the recovery Of the
Suez canal and the possession
of Egypt. Turkey is quite willing
to help the car in driving her from the
eastern Mediterranean Malta and the |
lenian Isles are in peril Sleepy Spain be
